The main objective of migrating is to find a
better job. In order of you expectations to
have fundaments, it is vital for you to be
constantly aware of the
working situation in
Canada.

How to have a fresh start?
Information for working in Canada legallyNowadays, the job
market is almost a complete enigma in
developed countries (especially in the
United States), after the economic crisis
that has been affecting the economy. But in
whose countries, in which there has been a
lack of work force, such as
Canada, the situation is starting to demand more
requirements and capacities in order to
obtain a job position; a job that satisfies
your initial expectations.

Well, the most valuable information that you
need to know to be able of
working in Canada legally is that we foreigners have two
recognized ways by the Canadian federal
government with which you can access the
Canadian labor force. These are:

- Requires for you to have a job offer,
certified by the Canadian Human Resources
Office (HRDC).
- Demands you to deal a visa (verify if your
origin country is exclude of this item,
consulting the information in the Canadian
embassy of your locality)

- The applier must leave Canada, before the
expiration of his or her temporal working
permission.
- There is no way in which the Canadian
embassy will emit a working permission for
appliers that wish to travel to look for a
job.

As you can see, the emission of a
temporal
working permission is a very rigorous
process, so taking the necessary precautions
is very important, and if you are going to
choose this way, try to do it with the
necessary time to avoid complications.

In any of its three modalities (independent,
familiar reunification and business), the
Canadian government will not be in charge of
a work location for you, it will only
guarantee the access to its territory with
all the rights (with an exception of the
voting right) and obtaining federal help and
from various organizations, that will
support (in the installation process) all
the immigrants.

The great dilemma, at first, for every
immigrant (especially those who are under
the independent immigrant discipline) is how
to get a job.
The Canadian work market is a
market that does not have a great diffusion,
as it is used to in Hispano America.
Generally, many personal recommendations are
used in order to access to different job
positions.

In the different Canadian provinces, there
are organisms in charge of connecting
immigrants with various capacities and
experiences to contact nets. This allows
them to find job offers according to the
level of preparation the new arrival has.

There are many resources in the
Internet, which can offer you information about job
offers, offers which are divided for every
province. You do not lose anything by
checking out the web sites so you are able
of learning more about the real state of the
Canadian labor market, due to the fact that
in these crisis times, situations change
every day.

Some search terms that could help you in
acquiring your own vision might be: Workers
Employment Program, Immigrant Career
Connections, Employment Assistance Services,
and Labor Market Information Centers (you
must consult information in English and/or
in French so you are sure it is updated
information).

Summing up,
working legally in Canada, supposes that you, as a worker, are able of
assuming the challenge of showing, in a
culturally different media, your
professional and/or technical capacities,
according to the specifications of each
case. It is also your labor to avoid
generating superficial expectations and
inform yourself wisely.
